I have to say my husband and I had a wonderful time with ‘Aaron’! Aaron arrived before our pick-up time (HYATT ZILARA) of 11:30AM. **LOVE THAT, PROMPT SERVICE** Even though I was a little late because I left my water shoes upstairs in our room, so I had to run back upstairs quickly to get them. LOL Aaron took us to YS Falls in Saint Elizabeth, and then after that he drove us over to Floyd’s Pelican Bar. AMAZING TIME IN BOTH PLACES!!! Thank you so much Aaron for the enjoyable conversations, as well as taking us, and getting us back to our hotel safely. We will be sure to book with you when we are in town again and best believe we will be requesting ‘Aaron’ as our driver! Thank you & stay safe Shavarr & Adrianne

We were picked up promptly and on time from the airport in a large passenger van, and our tour of the island began with some shopping in Charlotte Amelia, followed by some site seeing of the beautiful island. Slightly disappointed as I was hoping for a lunch stop or a bite to eat. Otherwise, the tour and our driver Mr. Sunny was great! Our tour ended being dropped off at our resort in time for a late afternoon check-in.

This action pack day will start by visiting two natural rock waterslides, one for beginners and another for the adrenaline seekers, swimming in natural water holes and jumping from rocks. Then will head to a serene freshwater natural pool where the more adventurous will be able to jump from a rope swing and others will just float, swim or relax in the river bank. All this surrounded by green lush areas and after first doing a short hike to admire the local plants and trees. End up this perfect day by relaxing at a beautiful popular beach with few waves and calm waters. In this excursion we will not enter the official El Yunque National Rainforest for sightseeing, but rather visit the less touristy spots and local water fun areas on the outskirts of the Rainforest for a more adventurous experience. This tour requires some physical fitness, balance, hiking and basic swimming skills. Minimum age is 3 years old. Minimum tour group size is 4 people.

This tour was the most amazing experience I have ever been on. I have visited several places and done many tours but this one was one for the books. Yamile is amazing and so friendly she is a one woman show so if you book this tour you will be delighted by her presence. The pictures don’t do it justice! You swim through caves, swim in water and hike until your heart is content. It is a bit physical, I am not a physically fit person and never exercise but I made it. The worst part is the steep incline back to the bus. I wouldn’t recommend trying if you have a hard time walking or climbing. Yamile will call you the day before to go over everything with you which is so nice to have someone that truly cares about your experience. If you want a fun adventure this is it!! I recommend eating a good breakfast before going and lunch was very tasty and reasonably priced. Yamile if you’re reading this I just want you to know you’re the best and our new PR family :)

Hike with me on a real forest trail, cut and made by yours truly. This is tour is NOT in the rainforest. This trail, in the center of Puerto Rico that takes you to a breathtaking 130 foot waterfall. This perhaps may be the ONLY tour that you get it all. This 8 hour, small group hiking Adventure will take you to see the mountains, the country side of the island, the culture, eat the local food, be with and among the locals, swimming in waterfalls, hiking in the forest etc... During our hike to this breathtaking waterfall, there are natural swimming pools to jump in to and refresh. We will end our day of Fun and Adventure at a local restaurant to enjoy the local cuisine (at your own expense).

Puerto Rico El Yunque Rainforest Hiking to a Waterfall and Cliff Jumping Adventure Visiting our waterfalls, rivers, and forests is an event in and of itself. Let our secret spot blow your mind. Over 20 years of getting out there has led us to this enchanted marvel of a hike with swim and jump opportunities. Live an unmatched experience! At the riverbed you will find pools and a tall rock face. A truly majestic waterfall will be visible immediately as you enter the clearing from under the canopy. Amazing pictures galore! You will have the opportunity to swim and we will even show you a few places to jump from. The trail consists of an initial gentle sloping terrain (10 minutes) with another more inclined terrain (20 minutes) down to the waterfall. This trail has everything that you look forward to on a real true hike in the woods. You will make your way past wildflowers, passion fruit vines, and tropical hardwood trees. The wildlife consists of birds, snails, and others.

This tour was amazing!!! Don't think twice about this purchase because it is totally worth it. Our tour guide was well-informed of the history of the caves and the indigenous people of Puerto Rico. Not only that our tour guide was extremely helpful with getting me to climb inside the cave. I was very scared but he helps me the entire way through. He literally let me step on his feet to help me get inside the cave! It was well worth it though because inside the cave was absolutely beautiful and I'm glad that I conquered that task. If we explored the caves on our own and without a tour guide we wouldn't have even known that little cut in the cave was there and we wouldn't have seen the beauty of the cave. If I go to Puerto Rico again I'll definitely get the tour for anyone I bring.

Take time to escape from the city and dare yourself to explore other less known areas of El Yunque Rainforest.  Hike in an off beaten path trail, river trek, rock climb, learn and spot it's flora and fauna, and enjoy its gorgeous waterfalls, natural pools and waterslides. Along with your knowledgeable certified tour guide you will be immersed in a wild secluded paradise, and fully infused with the vibrating energy of El Yunque's rivers and fresh clean air, just like the indigenous Taino Indians did centuries ago. Please make sure to read all details and additional information before booking.  This tour is a moderate to strenuous activity and may not be suitable for everybody.  For a lighter version please look for our El Yunque National Half Day tour.

Felix and JC were great. We were staying at the Wyndham Rio Mar so we met them at their pickup spot Frutera Flores like 10 min away. I workout 6 times a week and run 8-10 mi every week. I still found this pretty challenging. I’m glad I started doing leg days! Lots of steep climbs, muddy paths, slippery rocks! It was worth it but please listen to the disclaimer. I’m so glad I had hiking shoes so I didn’t slip, highly recommended!!! The waterfall slides, cliff jumps, views were amazing and worth the climb. The first climb was tough but it gets even harder. There’s a spring pool if you rather not continue to the more challenging part. I loved every single moment but this is a very active tour but the most fun I had in Puerto Rico.
